This Web site is designed for all people interested in the arts and culture who would like to know the breadth of MSU’s offerings. Browse this site to learn about events scheduled for this upcoming year, academic programs, and resources for community, faculty, current and prospective students, and children and youth.

Michigan State University has a vibrant cultural community with countless public performances, exhibitions, programs and special events throughout the year. These arts and culture offerings educate and engage audiences by exploring the diversity of human expression, while contributing to the creative and economic vitality of the region.

Members of the university and greater communities and visitors from near and far delight in music, performing arts and concert centers, libraries, museums and galleries, gardens, public art and historic sites across the MSU campus. At the same time, audiences on campus and around the world take advantage of academic and research programs, public broadcasting, online resources, publications and outreach initiatives.

Arts and culture play a critical role not only in preparing students for a global world, but also in nurturing the human spirit, and enriching prosperity and quality of life in Michigan. This year, the university is especially pleased to celebrate 2007-2008 as MSU's Year of Arts and Culture. This initiative comprises a year of activities wrapping around all arts and culture units and academic programs. Highlights will include the 25th Anniversary of Wharton Center for Performing Arts, anniversaries of the MSU Museum and the Department of Theatre, the beginnings of the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, the opening of the new Residential College for the Arts and Humanities, the first academic year for the newly designated College of Music, and much more.

Join us in celebrating MSU's Year of Arts and Culture.
